I spent my afternoon at church for the children's Christmas worship service that was taking place today. It's the church's annual event, but it's my first time being there. In fact, it's my first time attending an event like that as a teacher so it got me a bit excited.
The children in the preschool department were to sing "Angels we have heard on high" with some actions. Before the service, all the children gathered to rehearse with their angel costumes. They were just adorable! They are so cute in my eyes, but that must mean they are hundred times cuter to their parents, and that must also mean they are thousand times adorable to Jesus. Some children are just mini-me versions of their parents, and wow, they look exactly like their mom or dad. It makes me wonder how my future children will look like. It must be so cute to have a daughter who looks like me and to have a son who looks like my future husband. How exciting it will be as parents to watch your children grow, love and seek God.
Recently, I've been thinking about my future children. Well, to be exact, I want my own children. However, in order to do that I need to find my future husband and get married first. So unfortunately, I won't be meeting my future children until a few years later. But I don't worry, because it will all happen in God's perfect time.
It reminded me of my childhood, when I was just a little girl. The church I attended in Korea had two main chapels - one was in the main building where the regular adult service took place, and the other one was older place, made out of wood (if I'm not mistaken) and from what I remember, we only went there for special service for Christmas. I don't remember myself on the stage as a kindergartener, but I remember singing with the choir for Christmas. For one Christmas, we sang a medley of worship songs and I think I still have a copy of the music. In fact, I kept many of the songs that we performed when I was in the children's choir at my church in Korea. We even went on a competition one year but we didn't do an outstanding job, but it was a nice experience. I wish my current church has a choir because I would definitely join again. Don't get me wrong - I'm not a good singer but I love to sing! I hope to one day join a choir again and praise God through the voice He's given me.
